How many Yellow Tangs would you say suitable for a 75 gallon tank? 1,2?

my opinion is zero. but you might get away with 1 depending on your overall livestocks.

I agree if you get a small one you may get away with one they like to swim . Deff would not get two in such small tank. And even in bigger tanks I've seen that they can still be aggressive towards each other . Now my buddy has a huge tank and has 4 and it seems that if you keep more then two they are ok.

My yellow tang is a tottal weirdo . And a thug lol

I go with zero. Remember that once established yellow tangs are highly territorial especially in tanks that are too small.
